I’m new to Glide…but this does not seem right.  
I made a 1.5 min (unlisted) video which probably explains it better than I ever could in writing.

Thanks!

That’s normal. A relation links to the entire related row. Glide can’t show that entire row in one small cell, so instead it shows you the first column value from that related sheet to let you know that it found something.

Ohhhh, I see. I guess that makes sense…but (at least for my data) this was confusing. Thanks for clarifying.
